Project Orange

The project aims to create an animated short while using and extending the
free software 3d animation and modelling tool, Blender. Similar to the tool itself, it is being created in an open
manner, cooperating with external contributors while keeping a devoted
blender-artist-dreamteam in house. All project files will be released along with the
film under the Creative Commons license.

How’s that for user testing? ;) Even if it’s too early to predict, I believe
there can’t be a better way for developers to ensure a software package is
really being the best tool for the job than cooperating so closely with the
artists as it is in this case.
